"A loud boom, about five minutes to midnight," a neighbor told Queen City News. "A gorgeous house, in all respects, I can’t believe it."

According to property records, the home was listed for about $2 million in 2022 and was only built in 2016. Greene said the home is a complete loss as are some vehicles.

Farley, 24, is originally from Maiden – located about 24.5 miles west of Mooresville, where the explosion occurred. Lake Norman sits in between both towns.

The cornerback attended Virginia Tech before the Titans selected him in the first round of the 2021 draft.
